Avoid Estes Plastic PArachutes! Mar 18, 2007 By kone "kone"
I have flowen model rockets for over 40 years now, and the parachutes that Estes is making currently are an embarassment to the company! They are made of cheap plastic instead of nylon. The plastic often tears away from the cloth cords, and the cords tangle easily. Added to these problems, the chute often does not fully deploy if the plastic chute is not powdered to make it less "sticky". And forget about launching in cold temperatures as the plastic has a "memory" and often fails to open in cold weather.

Estes plastic parachutes, no matter what size, are a disaster to be avoided. Pay la little more money for a nylon parachute and it will last as long as the rocket.

p.s. I edited this review again in 2008, as I have had so many failures with Estes' plastic parachutes. The editing feature did not allow me to downgrade the number of stars to ONE, which this produce deserves.

Item not as shown. Sep 06, 2010 By Tim Bennett
The item's photo is for the new Estes parachute designed to look like chutes from the 60's. It looked nothing like the photo description. The design was different and it was purple and green. I returned it for a refund.
